Launches and Releases

Former Eater wine editor Talia Baiocchi and writer Leslie Pariseau just launched an online magazine in collaboration with Ten Speed Press called Punch. The mag focuses on "narrative journalism—both written and visual—about wine, spirits and cocktails." The first issue features Besha Rodell writing about 40s, a chat with LCD Soundsystem's Nancy Whang about drinking on the road, and a piece by Katie Parla on Istanbul's last craft cocktail bar. [Punch]
